The Quantum Curators and the Fabergé Egg

Quantum Curators Series, Book 1

By: Eva St. John

Narrated by: Lucy Rayner, Alex Wyndham

Anyone can track down a priceless artefact that's been lost for hundreds of years. Finding one that's been hidden on a parallel Earth . . . now that's a neat trick.

When Neith Salah—a quantum curator charged with traveling to our parallel Earth to rescue precious artefacts—is ordered to save a priceless Faberge Egg, she figures it's just another job. The only problem: she's not sure what the egg looks like. Or where it is. Or when it is.

Enter Julius Strathclyde, a mild-mannered Cambridge professor whose closest brush with death-defying treasure hunts is finding lost coins down the back of the sofa. Not the usual "save the world" type, but when Julius' best friend is murdered while searching for the egg, Neith realizes that this mild-mannered professor is the only person who can help her solve the riddles that will lead her to the egg.

She just has to keep him alive long enough to do it.

He's got the fountain pens. She's got the guns. They'll just have to hope that's enough to keep them ahead of the Russian Mafia, unknown assassins, and perhaps even other quantum curators who want the egg for their own dark purposes . . . and may not be picky about who they have to kill to get it.

Intriguing ideas.

I didn’t care for the narrators. Especially the woman. She drew out her words too much.

Worth sticking with

For the first 2 hours of this book I was wondering why I was still listening. But then things fell into place with lots of intrigue and character development. Initially I did not like the choice of female narrator but by the end of the book I thought she was a good choice. Definitely need to read the next book now.

Liked the story but narration could be better

Did not like the female voice talent’s narration of this book. Had a weird cadence and was a bit singsong. Liked the story enough to bear with it.

The male narrator sounded better.

Twisty plot - new take on time travel

Great story and characters, moves at a nice pace. The ending leaves you wondering and looking for the next book

Glad to discover Eva St. John
